A possible leak has put the Forza community on high alert. In recent hours, an image captured within Forza Horizon 5 has been circulating, allegedly showing the release date of Forza Horizon 6, even before its official announcement.

According to the capture shared by a user on social media, the new chapter in the saga would debut on May 15th in early access, while the standard edition would arrive on May 19th. The image is said to have appeared as a pop-up within Forza Horizon 5 itself, although it has not been replicated by other players or media outlets, so it’s best to treat the information with caution.

Early Access, Premium Content, and an Exclusive Ferrari

According to the data accompanying the alleged leak, those who purchase the Premium Upgrade would have access to a fairly comprehensive package, including:

• 4-day early access, starting May 15th
• VIP membership
• Welcome Pack
• Car Pass
• Time Attack Car Pack
• Italian Passion Car Pack (post-launch)
• Two premium expansions planned after release

Additionally, players who pre-order the game would receive an exclusive, tuned Ferrari J50, a detail that has sparked speculation about whether it could even be the game’s cover car.

Japan and the Xbox Developer_Direct: The Pieces Fall into Place

Although Microsoft has not officially confirmed anything, the timeline fits with previous rumors and a key piece of information already announced: Forza Horizon 6 will be one of the main attractions at the upcoming Xbox Developer_Direct, where the first in-depth gameplay will be shown and how Japan comes to life as the new setting for the series.

The Japanese setting is one of the most demanded by fans for years, and everything suggests that Playground Games wants to make a statement with this release. If the leak turns out to be real, the wait for a definitive date would be very short.
